  3. President Trump is once again putting his own interests above those of hardworking Americans who need their paychecks, especially this time of year. His willingness to shut down the govt at the last minute (when he's had two years to work on border security) is reckless.

  4. The idea of America is too great to be walled off from the rest of the world. We need a real plan to secure our nation’s borders including Florida’s air and sea ports, not shut down the government and punish families to prove a political point over a misguided wall.

  12. President Trump's plan to immediately withdraw our forces from Syria is a terrible strategic error. It'll undermine our national security, abandon our allies, and embolden our enemies. The fact Putin & Assad applaud this action is the best evidence it is flawed and foolish. 1/2
